La Quinta by Wyndham Charleston Riverview, hotel in Charleston

    It cost me $175 to valet park next to the hotel.

    It cost me $175 to valet park next to the hotel. I was told that if I parked it myself it would be $18 but it would be subject to double charges and cost more. We walked everywhere and never saw our car until we checked out. Charleston is an old city and there are many uneven sidewalks. The historic area streets could use some cleaning and maybe flowers and shade trees. Very unattractive. walking tours, fort sumpter were great. Loved the city market. May restaurants overpriced and just so so. One gem was the BBQ place near the city market. If I were to return I’d stay in a more modern hotel in the historic district.

    We enjoyed our trip to Charleston.

    We enjoyed our trip to Charleston. We did a 2 hour walking tour through the city and it was very interesting. Our tour guide, Fran, with Bulldog Tours was very knowledgeable and passionate about the city. Loved seeing The Battery and all of the beautiful historic homes. These homes have the most beautiful window boxes filled with flowers. We also did a harbor cruise with Harbour Tours which was very informative. We got right up to the USS Yorktown. There is an abundance of restaurants and bars to choose from. We went to Rue de Jean and Coast Bar and Grill. Both were located in Hutson's Alley. Good food and reasonable prices. If you love to shop you have to go to King Street. There were many boutiques and high-end shops. Lots of places to eat or stop for a drink or coffee. Charleston is a very walkable city, and we definitely got our miles in! Now that I am more familiar with certain parts of the city I would try other small hotels on our next visit.

    Charleston is always a delightful visit.

    Charleston is always a delightful visit. The hotel was close to the venue for a wedding (Charlestown Landing at the Legare Waring House). Charlestown Landing, with the gorgeous azaleas and other flowers in full bloom, was breathtaking and the perfect setting for the outdoor wedding under the ancient live oaks that epitomize quintessential Charleston. The hotel was conveniently located to various restaurants (Boxcar Betty's did run out of chicken Friday evening so go early!) in the area and was very easy to maneuver with GPS. Stella's is a great restaurant featuring Greek cuisine and you're hard pressed to find better, fresher oysters (and other delicious fare) than at the Darling Oyster Bar.

    It’s a beautiful historic city.

    It’s a beautiful historic city. If you are downtown there is a free bus and it is easy to walk to many sites. We had a wonderful dinner to celebrate a special birthday at Halls Chop House, expensive but worth it. Also had a delightful lunch at Magnolia. Everything was crowded and expensive. Reservations at popular places are a must even on weekdays in April!

    Plan on doing some walking.

    Plan on doing some walking. We enjoyed a horse-drawn carriage tour - an hour long, $50, well worth it, and a great tour guide. Shopping at the Marketplace is a must, 3 blocks of warehouse buildings full of unusual items. The Waterfront is a beautiful walk, as is Rainbow Row (a collection of pastel colored homes). We had Lunch at Magnolia's at the bar, which was Outstanding. We spent our first afternoon at Boone Plantation - HIGHLY Recommended! Beautiful gardens, "Entrance of Oaks", a Cafe' on site, and a Tractor tour of the property, all wonderful. If you can only do 1 plantation, this one is CLOSE, 20 minutes from downtown, and beautiful.

    The view is amazing and totally makes the stay worth it (I paid a couple dollars extra for a city view). It's also in a great location - it's not downtown which makes parking/driving easier and cheaper but it's only about 5 minutes from downtown Charleston and the Avondale neighborhood in West Ashley. The road to the hotel connects to the road to Folly Beach too if you're coming for the beach.

    The hotel was clean & the staff friendly. The location is located in a built up area near lots of restaurants and shops, but not near downtown Charleston. Obviously if you want near downtown, you’re going to pay for that convenience. Breakfast is offered at the hotel, but to me, pricey. We would definitely stay there again.
